Transmission During Gap Time

Abstract

A wireless device transmits data to a base station associated with a first network when the data is of a type that is allowed to be transmitted to the base station during a gap. During the gap the wireless device is allowed to switch to a device of a second network while in a radio resource control connected state with the first network.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method comprising:
 transmitting, by a wireless device to a base station of a first network, data, based on the data being of a data type allowed to be transmitted to the base station during a gap in which the wireless device is allowed to switch to a second device of a second network while in a radio resource control connected state with the first network.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising transmitting, by the wireless device to the base station, one or more of:
 a first request that data of the data type is allowed to be transmitted during the gap; or   a second request for an uplink resource to transmit the data.   
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the wireless device from the base station, an indication that the data of the data type is allowed to be transmitted during the gap.

         6 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising switching, by the wireless device to the base station from the second device, wherein the switching occurs,
 after one or more of the wireless device:
 determining to transmit the data to the base station; 
 switching to the second device; or 
 initiating a procedure to communicate with the second device during the gap; and 
   before one or more of the wireless device:
 completing the procedure to communicate with the second device; or 
 allowing the gap to expire. 
   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the data type is associated with at least one of:
 a service procedure associated with the data;   a slice type associated with the data;   quality of service information of the data;   a radio bearer of the data;   a logical channel of the data;   a priority of the data;   an access category of the data; or   an access identity of the data.   
     
     
         8 . A wireless device comprising:
 one or more processors; and   memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause a wireless device to:
 transmit, by the wireless device to a base station of a first network, data, based on the data being of a data type allowed to be transmitted to the base station during a gap in which the wireless device is allowed to switch to a second device of a second network while in a radio resource control connected state with the first network. 
   
     
     
         9 . The wireless device of  claim 8 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to transmit, to the base station, one or more of:
 a first request that data of the data type is allowed to be transmitted during the gap; or   a second request for an uplink resource to transmit the data.   
     
     
         10 . The wireless device of  claim 8 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to receive, from the base station, an indication that the data of the data type is allowed to be transmitted during the gap. 
     
     
         11 . The wireless device of  claim 8 , wherein the gap is one or more of:
 a multi-universal subscriber identity module (MUSIM) gap;   a measurement gap; or   an in-device coexistence gap.
